Lok Sabha has cleared three labour code Bills. What are the key changes, and why are some being seen as a cause for concern?

The Lok Sabha Tuesday cleared new versions of three labour codes — Industrial Relations Code Bill, 2020, Code on Social Security Bill, 2020 and Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code Bill, 2020.
